Abstract The analysis of elastic quasi-brittle structures containing cohesive cracks and contacts with friction is given a unitary formulation in the framework of incremental plasticity. Integral equations for displacements and tractions are enforced by a weighted-residual Galerkin approach so that symmetry is preserved in the key operators (in contrast to collocation BE approaches) and cracks (either internal or edge cracks) can be dealt with by a single-domain BE formulation. The space-discrete problem in rates is expressed as a linear complementarity problem centered on a symmetric matrix or, equivalently, as a quadratic programming problem in variables pertaining to the displacement discontinuity locus only. Criteria for overall instabilities and bifurcations are derived from this formulation. The BE approach proposed and implemented by a suitable time-stepping technique, is comparatively tested by numerical solutions of cohesive-crack propagation problems.
